Green light for village turbines

A DEVELOPER insists two wind turbines will generate enough energy to be viable.

The 110 metre turbines were given approval at a Daventry District Council planning meeting last week, despite objections from local people.

Richard Mardon, chief executive of Airvolution which is behind the scheme, said: “We are delighted especially as the power generated by these turbines will go to Butcher’s Pet Care which is a good local business.”
